Guild Wars 2

Did i just hit a wall or something ?

I totally lost interest in playing GW2. Got 2 level 80’s, and cant see a reason why i should keep rolling new characters.

Cant really see why i should grind my way through certain dungeons to get “x” cosmetic gear. If i allready got a set im happy with.

sPvP is not fun in this game, imo. Balanced or not-balanced, im just not getting “caught” by it.

WvW zergs is insanely boring.

Is there anything left for me, or am i “thinking” wrong about stuff..

Is it a totally stupid question, since no one can help and answer ?

Generally just asking what stat prio you prefer with this supportive trait system, and since its really popular, alot of players should have an opinion on this :-/

Anybody, please ?

Hey

Getting close to ding 80, and looking forward to it! Just a question though

What stat combo would you suggest i should start off with ?

I plan on playing as a supportive/tankish Guardian with the 0/0/30/30/10 build.

Id love to get PVT gear, but i need tokens for that. So i need a set to start out with “something”.

I hope you can suggest something usefull

You laugh in the face of opposition – Then they are dead at your feet and you can happily carry on collecting mats. (You can even have time to /dance with the risen).
Out of my 3 80’s (engi, mesmer n guard) the guard can do a farming round far quicker and with way more kills than the other two proffs. (Clear the Pact field hospital of Risen is the event that i use as a benchmark (me vs (usually) 22 risen . . . . and i’m still standing:))

What gear setup have you for this ?

So this is AoE farming you’re talking about, or does same apply regarding single target farming ?

Awesome reply though!

I plan to farm for different stuff. Mainly level 77-80 mobs for mats.

Can a guardian, who traited right and with Berserker(dps) gear dish out some quick kills and farm decently fast ?

Ive been searching for a support PvE Guardian video for quite some time, and i just cant seem to find any.

Am i blind?

Id love to see how a support guardian using a 1h+shield/focus in a explorable dungeon. Maybe you can record a short video ?

Depends on the Guardian:
P/V/T wannabe Tank without Support = horrible.
Sharing boons and healing like candy = I like.

btw, this thread belongs to the dungeon forum. It’s not about Guardians, it’s about feelings for Guardians in Dungeons.

Thanks for this.

More opinions please!

Star Reaver.8415:

as someone who primarily runs with PUGs I would suggest the following:

1.) if you don’t know a dungeon speak up – most groups will have people that know the dungeon very well and don’t mind explaining as it will make it go faster more times than not.
2.)Have both ranged and melee weapons available (also don’t be scared to change skills in quickbar throughout a dungeon run)
3.)When in doubt hang at back of group as to not add unwanted mobs (there are typically two(2) types of players in dungeons… “lets run” or “lets fight”)
4.)As stated above – READ party chat
5.)With PUGs or even experienced groups – Some Dungeons can take hour(s) so prepare accordingly..
6.)when doing ARAH u should really have rares or better equiped (if you can) which shouldn’t be a problem if you try other dungeons before going for the big dog…

sure there are other things I’ve missed.. but this has worked well for me up to this point.

Thanks

Sounds like my first few tries on my Elementalist.

Eventually i ragequitted, and made a Guardian just to ease the pressure towards my Elementalist. I will still play him, but i just feel i need to see some other class now.

So much different than the “usual – WoW – dungeons”, and i see several people having problems the first few times.

I hope with more experience and dedication i will be better for the exploreable’s.

I dont think its wrong to ask other people that run Dungeons alot, what they think about Guardians

Do you play one yourself in Dungeons?

Or do you often face a Guardian in your group, if so – what do you think?

Tired of leveling alts, and curious what professions you people do 1-400 for quick levelling. (and im talking about buying all the mats)

ive tried chef, jeweler, tailor, artificer. Among those, chef was the cheapest.

My 2 favorites are Chef and Jeweler, but id like to hear if Huntsman, Armorsmithing or Weapon smithing is very expensive or we talking 5-10g for 1-400 like the others ?

Id be interested in hearing about this aswell!

Thanks

Thanks alot for the opinions!

Love to get some more insight, so keep em coming!

A heavy plated class that successfully can wield a Shield (yes im a shield fan!) that still can deal out a fair bit of damage.

Is that the guardian?

How is the surviveability of a guardian in Explorable dungeons ?

Can you tell me what you think about Guardian in explorable modes ?

Ps. i dont HAVE to equip shield at all times. And im open for both dps and support roles.

Any opinions?

Are you for real?

I thought D/D’s would have a even harder time in PvE Explorable Dungeons ?

And you also fight with staff in that boss fight ????

I only saw the video from the first boss fight, but was a good one.

Care to explain your traits and utilities to a new 80 Elementalist, that was so discouraged after his first AC exp (path 3) run, that i really think about stopping playing.

I run with a mix of Carrion and Knight exotics and staff ofc. Yet im so confused on what build i should START with, since the last time i got downed so many times. Hardly felt i benefitted the group.

I hope you will teach me abit. Thanks in advance!

Yeah, but i still need some armor to start with. And im still not certain which one to buy from AH :-(

Jay.3284:

Im going to assume that you like to DPS, so that said:
P/V/T armor w\ 3 solider Crest and 3 Beryl Orbs, with Knight’s Jewelry and Sapphire exquisite slotted

Edit: It would also help which weapon you’d like to main. And Superior Runes of Divinity are more expensive and WORST than Crest/Orbs.

Thanks for the answer. But the question was if its good to start with 3x Valkyrie parts, and 3x Knight parts – since i cant buy the PVT gear on AH.

Sorry.. Im talking about the Dagger / Dagger cookie cutter build 0 – 10 – 0 – 30 – 30.

Hi, and thanks for reading.

Im a newly dinged 80, and seeking some guidance.

First, id like to say that im going to play PvP and PvE. Like 60/40% – if that helps you.

I got 51k karma to use, and 0 dungeon tokens. Therefore im looking to buy exotic stuff on AH.

After reading alot of posts, ive found out that having PVT armor set, and with “berserker” kinda jewelry – would be good for me?

Here is my problem ; AH doesnt sell these PVT armors. So im considering doing this :

Buy 3x Valkyrie parts : (Power, Vitality, Crit)

Buy 3x Knight parts : (Power, Toughness, Precision)

http://www.gw2db.com/recipes/7814-knights-exalted-coat

What do you think about this option ?

PS. Id love to hear what kinda runes you would recommend for my setup? Or is “Superior Rune of Divinity” still the best for me ?

Any danish guilds out there ?

Im a real fan of the D/D set, but im still only level 24.

Im confused about what talents that would benefit me the most for this kind of leveling.

Or just leveling in general!

I do mostly events, story, and then hearts – in that order.

Yes ive read the stickie about builds. There’s alot of builds, but people forget to write (in newbie) words what its all about.

I hope someone will take their time and write a suggestion what i should pick.

Just curious how its handling GW2, as i “think” i might install it anytime soon

Same here aswell

Same here aswell

Is the XP scaled of some sort?

I mean, doing at level 10, or doing it at level 40… Is that the same xp ?

Im interested in making an alt, and heard rumours that you can actually level up faster via crafting, if you got the gold for it.

Does anyone got experience with this?

Thanks in advance!

Cheers!

Im starting on this game right as we speak, but got a couple of questions regarding Warriors.

I plan to mostly PvE, dungeons, exploring etc. Lets say im level 80, how are they in dungeons?

Is it hard, or do they offer something good ?
